Aloo (potato)
paratha

As the name suggests, an aloo paratha is the most
common and tastiest of them all, and it is consumed by everybody. This paratha
is made by filling up some spicy mashed potato filling in flat bread which is
rolled out again and cooked. People like to eat it with lemon pickle and curd.
They taste amazing even after a day!

Paneer
paratha

Paneer or Cottage cheese paratha is considered as a
fancy paratha. You can eat it anytime but people like to eat it in breakfast
because cottage cheese is high in protein and you need them proteins, my
friend.

Onion paratha

Ahan! Here we get on route of Punjab. All the onion
lovers are a fan on this paratha. It can be eaten with dal makhani or with any
chutney. Fried onions or caramelised, onion paratha is a blessing.

Lachha
paratha

Lachha paratha originated from the northern side of
India. Lachha means layers and that is exactly what the paratha has. This
paratha is rolled many times and that is how it gets those amazingly soft yet
crunchy layers. You can eat any kind of vegetable curry with this!

Matar (Peas)
paratha

To be honest, this paratha has my heart and it is my
favourite. Spiced mashed peas are stuffed in the bread and this makes the
paratha amazing because on the inside it is soft and the outside is crunchy.
Have it with sauce or curd, thank me later!

Besan paratha/
chila (gram flour pancake)

This pancake is spicy as it has different spices,
onion and chillies. This chilla can make a good Tiffin box meal. You can have
this for breakfast and also, you can have it with any kind of chutney and sauce.

Cheese
paratha

Cheese paratha is loved by everyone. What you need to do is add a cheese slice inside the dough and roll it out. You can eat it with any kind of sauce and mayonnaise. Its heaven!

Tip; you can also add some green chilies and then the taste will double up!

Saviour! All the Indian mothers make this paratha using the leftover dal (lentil); it can be eaten for breakfast as well.

Best snack of all the time; Sev. Sev paratha is a flat
bread filled with different kinds of sev. It’s like a flatbread which is
crunchy and flavourful from the inside and soft from the outside.

Gobhi
(cauliflower) paratha

In this paratha, the inside is filled with grated cauliflower
that is roasted with masalas. It gives so many flavours in just one bite.

Sweet paratha

My favourite! This paratha is filled with sugar and
sometimes jaggery. It is topped with
some ghee or butter. This paratha is perfect for kids but nobody can control
their urge to have this. It’s a sweet-treat for everybody.
